J.K. Rowling’s New Mystery Novel Has A Release Date ...

J.K. Rowling might not have any current plans to continue her series of “Harry Potter” books but that doesn’t mean she’s just sitting around NOT writing.

She’s just wrapped up a new book in her “Comoran Strike” series of
mystery novels — and now we know just when and what we’ll be looking for
when it hits bookshelves in October.

“My good friend @RGalbraith’s new novel, CAREER OF EVIL will be published on 22 Oct,” Rowling said in her previous blurrier tweet, referring to her pseudonym Robert Galbraith.

Plot Synopsis:

When a mysterious package is delivered to Robin Ellacott, she is horrified to discover that it contains a woman's severed leg.

Her
boss, private detective Cormoran Strike, is less surprised but no less
alarmed. There are four people from his past who he thinks could be
responsible - and Strike knows that any one of them is capable of
sustained and unspeakable brutality.

With the police focusing on the one suspect Strike is increasingly sure is not
the perpetrator, he and Robin take matters into their own hands, and
delve into the dark and twisted worlds of the other three men. But as
more horrendous acts occur, time is running out for the two of them...

"A fiendishly clever mystery with unexpected twists around every corner, Career of Evil is
also a gripping story of a man and a woman at a crossroads in their
personal and professional lives. You will not be able to put this book
down"
